End of Active Service

Last updated

End of Active Service (EAS) is the conclusion of the period of active duty commitment for a member of the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps [1] or the U.S. Air Force. The equivalent term used by the U.S. Navy [2] and U.S. Coast Guard is the End of Active Obligated Service (EAOS).

This date can be changed by re-enlistment, extension, retirement, renewal of active orders, and administrative separation, among other things. This is not to be confused with Expiration of Current Contract (ECC) or Expiration of Obligated Service (EOS).[ citation needed ]
